I am highly amused that your supply list does not include the actual glitter. Also, you should know that some glitter is as sharp and almost as hard as glass and can cause eye injury. That is a good reason to only sprinkle when the victim is away. Still, I guarantee you that it will be on the worker's clothes, computer bag, water bottle (which I sincerely hope is closed at all times), etc. Your co-worker will be finding it at home and in vehicles if it's not already. So how did your disclosure go?

One more note: People who are working out in hot climes for extended periods of time (8 hours or more) lose a lot more fluids, sodium and potassium than most sports drinks typically replace. A really good medical article by Bates and Miller from 2008 goes into detail, recommending drinks with less sugar, more sodium, and a meal break during such activity. "Sweat rate and sodium loss during work in the heat" can be found at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC226779...or search the title on PubMed.

People who are working out in hot climes for extended periods of time (8 hours or more) lose a lot more fluids & sodium than most sports drinks can replace without overloading them with sugar. Speaking of sugar, I think that most sports drinks use glucose rather than sucrose for faster absorption, but in the real world I'm not sure that matters a lot.

Dear Cyto: I think you've assumed fungusamungus used different measurements. Using the amount of sodium per 1/4 teaspoon serving as described on the product label (not NaCl or KCl in milligrams, but the net amount of Na+ and K+ in that serving size), fungus has neatly skipped the anion/cation confusion by using the calculations provided by the Morton salt company -- which we hope is correct.
